Windows 11 system tray on second monitor
can we have the system tray on second monitor option back in Windows11? I never understand why they remove this in the first place. This function has been in the older windows OS and its impactful and useful it comes in handy as well its annoying when I try to reach to the corner and cannot find the system tray on second monitor

Microsoft hasn't given an official detailed explanation, but it appears to be part of their effort to "simplify" the Windows 11 interface. They centralized the system tray and clock with the primary monitor to create a single, unified point for system notifications and status. Unfortunately, this decision ignored the workflows of power users and anyone who uses multiple monitors extensively.
